Sony A6000 vs Sony A7 II
Every spec below is quoted from the makers' official pages — where a figure isn't published we say so rather than guess. Sizes are drawn at true relative scale from published dimensions, and the bag-fit row is computed against our measured bag catalog.
The 3 biggest published differences
- Burst — mechanical: the A6000 leads at 11 fps (in High Continuous shooting) vs the A7 II's 5 fps (in High Continuous Shooting).
- EVF resolution: the A7 II leads at 2 359 296 dots (0.5"-type electronic viewfinder (color)) vs the A6000's 1 440 000 dots.
- Weight (body): the A6000 leads at 344 g vs the A7 II's 599 g.

Spec values are the manufacturers' published figures, compared factually — we don't rank cameras. Fit verdicts are planning estimates from published interior dimensions, not guarantees. See methodology.
